Can we have some sort of Schedule
Date Posted:
August 06, 2008
I realize that there are things you are waiting on, but it sure would be nice to have some sort of idea as to the goings on of the rally seeing as how it is NEXT WEEK. Could we at least see a partial schedule posted.

set up
Date Posted:
August 05, 2008
why must we wait until 10:00 on saturday morning to enter the park for set up. there would be less congestion if they would open the gates early. the ones getting there at nine and ten would be able to drive on in instead of parking on the road. that way we could get all the tents set up before it gets too hot.
I understand your point, but this is the time scheduled and we the rally staff have things to do to get ready. Can you imagine what kind of problems we would have if the gates were just left open and let people come in when ever they wanted to. I am the one who has to open the gates and I have to work on Friday and need to get things ready on Saturday morning. Remember we only have a few volunteers to help with this rally so we have to have a schedule to go by.

Move the date!
Date Posted:
August 05, 2008
I love attending this rally and finally last year I actually had a bike to ride to it! If you want this event to really get bigger then I suggest moving it to a different date. August in MS is very hot! Why not move it to Sept or maybe May, or June?
We know that August is hot in MS and the rally Board has looked at a few different options in reguards to moving the rally time. However to move the rally later in the year presents many problems with School and the football schedule. This area is close to a major university and the football schedule is a big problem in this area starting the last weekend in August. Also in order to move the rally to an earlier date, we would have to start planning the rally before we have the rally scheduled for August. It takes a lot of hard work and planning on the part of the rally board and to work a date in to an earlier spot might conflict with other events thru-out the south east. But we are looking at possibilities.

I live in Starkville and will be attending, and my dad is coming in from Arkansas late Thursday to join me, but all his buddies cancelled on him. If anyone living near the Heber Springs/Greers Ferry Lake area up there wants to come I'm sure he would like to have someone ride with him (it's a long ride alone). If you're interested message me at ryankirkpatrick@hotmail.com and I'll let him know.

Lost Camera Found
Date Posted:
August 25, 2007
Hi everyone,
I had reported a lost Sony camera, but later found out it wasn't lost at all. My daughter borrowed it to look at the pictures, and forgot to return it. Oops! I will try to send some pictures too. We loved the rally, our first one, and enjoyed every one of our 1113 miles on our bike. The ride on the Trace was hot and beautiful, the people of Sturgis and visitors were super friendly. We loved shopping the vendors, and eating the great food...The concerts each night were great. The traffic was slow, but not as bad as downtown Daytona on Saturday night of Bike Week. Hope to see everyone again next year..

this is my 6th year coming to the ralley. when is your committe going to get some advice from the peoplr who attend other rallies. again there is to much 4 wheel traffic. i also noticed the lack of vendors from previous years. not surprising considering that your property owners charge an arm and a leg to set up on their property,plus the town fees. if they want to get rich, go get a better job and stop raping the vendors. also again not enough to maintain peoples attention, have you ever thought of a miss sturgis, bikini bike wash, go to other ralleys and get an idea.

2007 Rally Vehicle Traffic
Date Posted:
August 21, 2007
This was our 2nd Sturgis Rally, we had a great time again this year. What made it better was that my son brought his bike and rode with us. I will have to agree with some of the other Rally goers, something really needs to be done about the 4-wheel traffic. Too many 18 wheelers and other non rally traffic moving through Sturgis, on Friday and Saturday night I saw this one kid in a pickup pas by at least 5 times, and would have probably passed by more,had not the other cars and trucks had traffic backed up.It was apparent that the people of Sturgis really enjoy having the Rally in town just by the turn out on Friday nite to watch the dinner cruise. Maybe the town officials and rally organizers can come up with a plan that will better work next year.See ya then.

Growing
Date Posted:
August 19, 2007
This is my second year of attending the rally, and I can see the difference in bikes and people that were there. I got to Sturgis the sane time this year as last year and had to park much further from the center of town, which is GREAT. I'm glad to see it growing, but you can't walk and look around for trying to find a place to put your feet. The vendors are too close to the street. By the time you park bikes out of the street, put a vendor behind the curb, there's no place to walk. People are all over customers trying to shop or worse FALLING ALL OVER SOMEBODY'S BIKE!!! Oh well, still enjoyed it, knew it would be hot, carries plenty to drink, made it fine. See ya next year.
